JOHANNESBU­RG - The late musician Costa Titch’s mother, Lara Langveld, has pleaded for help to hasten the speed at which her son’s toxicology report becomes available.

Lara, who has suggested her son may have been poisoned, posted on Costa Titch’s Instagram timeline that she was told the results may take a while. She said she needed them to be made available soon because without them police could not do much for her and her family with regard to further investigat­ions into the rapper’s death.

“The National Health Laboratory Services can take months or even years to finalise toxicology tests. This means I am not the only mother who has to wait for answers.

“It also means if anyone did poison my son, they could get away with murder. I’m pleading for help to get answers as the police cannot do anything without these medical results,” she wrote.

Lara said she will not rest until she finds out what happened to him.

The 28-year-old rapper collapsed while performing at the Ultra Music Festival at Expo Centre in Johannesbu­rg on March 11.

“I promise you, my son, I will not rest until I find out what happened to you,” Lara wrote on the musician’s Instagram account.

Costa’s death left many fans with questions. An autopsy has not been made public.

Constantin­os ‘Costa Titch’ Tsobanoglo­u was described at his memorial as someone who was kind-hearted and positive about life.

His Manager Khotso Moeti said they had a five-year plan on how Costa was going to conquer the music industry.

He recalled a chat he had with the late rapper when they first met in Randburg.
